  1. Hello, Y'all Title states it all. Can anyone part with a spare with one of these? I'll use PayPal USD & I'm in the CONUS. Thanks & hope someone can help! šŸ™‚ S/F Masterguns
  2. Thank yaā€™ll much, for the outstanding & timely intel, gents! This helps me out a tremendously! Feel free to add anything else with regard to the config of these tanks. I think Iā€™m tracking now. I just canā€™t tell sometimes with these grainy b/w photos of shore based Marine Corps Skyhawks while in service in the Vietnam War. S/F Masterguns
  3. thank you!!!! S/F Masterguns
  4. Which were usually carried operationally not counting ferry flights? 300? I don't know which size the Hasegawa tanks are supposed to be without having that article handy. Thanks. S/F Masterguns
  5. Which 1/48 kit can I borrow the correct'ish size large (400 gallon?) drop tanks to include on a Hasegawa kit? As I understand it, Hasegawa's tanks are too small? Hobbycraft? Monogram? Another plane that used the same type tanks like the A-6, A-7, etc? I can't remember where I saw this discussion. Thanks as always. S/F, Masterguns
  6. Who has that authority that you can advise as to what this turd is doing? Thanks. P.S. - Are you a mod on AR15.com? Semper Fi, Masterguns
  7. Yeah. I usually do the same thing first as well. My thirst for this kit got in the way of my better judgement. I allowed myself to compromise my own 110% use of common sense way of dealing with people as well as in other facets of life. I take %100 responsibility for falling for this creep's offer. I'm thrashing myself for being so stupid when I knew better & should have done my usual invest before committing to buy something. This is what happens when I drive forward without agreeing to use PayPal. However, such is life. We all get scammed at some point, some way, some how, but it doesn
  8. Glad I could tamely get the warning out & prevent a yā€™all from getting taken But heā€™s still contacting members? I emailed site ownership letting them know about this creep & they havenā€™t put the ban hammer down on this guy yet??? Someone is bound to get scammed again if they donā€™t check this forum. Stay alert, gents. Take care. Semper Fi, Masterguns
  9. MODS- Howdy, all.... Bad seller on this forum as well as others. Used the ARC user name: 'Jeffmass' contacted me here via PM using that name. Told me, "Kindly contact hope in Louisiana ,he has 1/48 Hasegawa A-4B Skyhawk + Eduard Zoom #FE472 Painted Cockpit etch for sale in good condition Hereā€™s his email hopemoore01@hotmail.com (same scammer). Also used email (said it's his wife): elizabeth.hope52@icloud.com... Sign up here was approved & he answered my as post just two days ago. This guy (or gal) took me for $100 (totally my fault dumb move) yester
  10. If anyone alive still has this resin set, are you willing to sell or trade, please? I don't need the Hasegawa kit since it's not very much like an A-4K thus I can use the A-4E/F & I have the Eduard PE set to help make it more the part. I'm in CONUS & can pay with PayPal. I don't mind if you're outside of CONUS if we can work out a reasonable deal. Thank you for taking the time to check this want ad & I hope someone can help! Thank you! Semper Fi, Masterguns
  11. Disregard further. I found a few in some hidden away bins in the basement. Semper Fi, Masterguns
  12. Will pay via PayPal USD. I'm in the lower CONUS. Complete fret, please. Also a painted color cockpit Zoom set for the Hasegawa 1/48 A-4C would be appreciated, too, please. Thanks! Semper Fi, Masterguns
  13. the early -B model tip is included next to the later model AN/APR-30 tip.
  14. Late. They both have the the introduction of "Project Shoehorn" installed AN/APR-25 Mod1 radar homing & warning suite introduced in 1967 & then the AN/APR-30, those two BuNo. went through the "Project Heavyweight" program providing the beefed up main gear which resulted in the requirement of the trunion plate over the mains strut, drooped ailerons & slot stabs, AN/ALQ-51/100 band deception jammers & lock breakers, AN/ALE-29 chaff/flare dispensers, AN/ALQ-91 IFF & a few other mods that you can't see. Some in the cockpit-especially a redesign of the RIO's rear upper IP being
  15. Nabbed one from a fellow member for $50.00 shipped, but would like another. Keep in mind Iā€™m only looking for kit #09611 ā€˜Last Skyhawkā€™ boxing with the added extra parts to make one of the 24 Scooters off the McD/Douglas production line. These were called ā€œSuper Mikesā€ or ā€œSuper Hawksā€ with the larger main gear & gear doors. No other Hasegawa 1/48 A-4M release has these parts that Iā€™m personally aware of. PLEASE let me know if Iā€™m mistaken! Thanks for the other suggestions in my message box!
  16. Also, what do you think of the 40ml gray or white Tamiya surface primer run through an airbrush? Same or similar results? I've got tons of this stuff but also never used it. I just cannot find Mr. Surfacer gray liquid 1500 anywhere for less than $20 a bottle or so. Has this primer been discontinued? Thanks. Semper Fi, Masterguns
  17. I was asking about the black base because that's all I can find at the moment at regular price. I can't find any gray, my usual base color, so far during recent www search. It's not just a matter of what the NMF would like like afterward. Thanks! Semper Fi, Masterguns
  18. You guys can probably already reckon I've never painted a NMF on my models. So, I'm curious if I can use the black color Mr. Surfacer 1500 as a base for a NMF? If so, which metal or acrylic color steel, chrome, silver, gun metal, etc. paints would be recommended to use over the surfacer & like not peel the finish after masking? Of course I would use a recommended sealer before the metallics. What do you guys think? Thanks. Semper Fi, Masterguns
  19. Long shot, I know. But someone has to have one of several perhaps sitting in their stash will to sell or trade one for a reasonable cost. Doesn't have to be shrink wrapped but all parts must be complete & as new or like new condition. I don't need the decals or instruction manual. I prefer to pay with my verified PayPal account in USD. I'm located in CONUS & would like to keep any deal within the States or Canada but will consider a kit shipped from another county. Please let me know if you have one F/S or trade. I've collected at ton of 99% post war kits to present US military jets th
  20. KursadA is Caracal Decals. He was referring to himself in third party in the reply to your earlier post about scaling up his 1/72 sheets. (Just in case you didn't know...not trying to insult your intelligence)
  21. The F-86F-30 6-3 is appropriate as having served in the Korean War, correct? Thanks. Semper Fi, Masterguns
